>Description:
The linked shar file creates the new port inform-glk.  This is a modified version of the Inform compiler that can also produce glulx format games, in addition to standard z-machine games.
I'm not sure what category it should go in, as while it's mostly used for games, it is a full programming language that can be used for other things as well.  Right now it's set for games, with lang a secondary category, as Inform (which it is based on) is there.  Feel free to put it wherever is most appropriate.
The program to play the glulx-format games is called glulxe, and I should have a port of it (and its supporting libraries) done in a little while.
